PageComment
State Test Score ReportsThis page is now being released for all the districts. The page retrieves the state tests scores that TOMS has made available (CAASPP, ELPAC) as a .PDF file. This page is also available from the Parent Portal. To be able to access the test information, a username and key have to be requested from TOMS and entered into Aeries in the School Options page at the district level. In special cases, such as a single database holding several schools, each one being its own LEA, the keys will need to be entered at the school level. Language Assessment - A dropdown has been added to this page to show/download the ELPAC Electronic Test Scores. This dropdown will only be visible if the user has permission to State Score Reports.

Early Childhood DevelopmentEESD-9600 report now supports 4 digit zip code extensions. FIPS code is now a drop-down list and values may be added via the COD table. EESD-9600 report will now never include an attached PDF in email. A new funding type field has been added to specify methods of funding other than by the state, a non-blank value in this field will also indicate that the student will not be included in the 801a extract.
Early Childhood Development SetupVendor code is now configurable.
CDD801a ExtractCertain eligible inactive students would not be extracted, fixed.
Online Enrollment ImportAdded support for the new Pre-School (Age 3+) Entry Date field coming in from Online Enrollment, as well as support for additional gender codes. Also, new options to the Online Enrollment admin page have been added to turn off fields related to national origin such as Birthplace, US Enter Date, and CA School Enter Dates. After applying the 2/15 Online Enrollment update, these options will default to off which will hide the fields from parents. The settings may be adjusted on the Online Enrollment admin page.
